Each team will have players from the Griffins and the Sled Wings, with the Griffins’ Jeff Hoggan and the Sled Wings’ Tyler Anderson serving as captains.

At 6 p.m., fans can try out a sled on the ice (minimum $1 donation) and get autographs from their favorite Griffins players. The game begins at 7 p.m.

Tickets can be purchased at the door for $5 per person or $20 per family, while children 2 and younger are free.

All proceeds from the evening will benefit the Sled Wings program and the Griffins Youth Foundation.

The Sled Wings, a team of children and adults who have physical disabilities, are sponsored by the Griffins Youth Foundation in partnership with Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital.

They became the first junior-level sled hockey team in Michigan upon their founding in 2001, and they have gained a national reputation by winning various prestigious tournaments and continuing to develop high-caliber players. Anderson and Chris Melton have both played for the U.S. National Developmental Sled Hockey Team, and Susie Kluting is in her second season as a member of the U.S. Women’s Sled Hockey Team.
